520			_a"The Conquest of a Continent; or, The Expansion of Races in America" by Madison Grant is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work examines the racial origins and influences that shaped American society, asserting the significance of Nordic heritage in the formation of the United States. Grant positions this exploration as a response to contemporary concerns about immigration and cultural homogeneity. At the start of the book, the author outlines significant shifts in American public sentiment regarding immigration, noting the change from a welcoming attitude toward diverse peoples to a more cautious and restrictive approach influenced by events such as World War I. He argues that the United States was originally dominated by a predominantly Anglo-Saxon and Nordic population and expresses concern over the growing diversity due to mass immigration. Grant sets the stage for a more detailed analysis of these racial dynamics, highlighting historical contributions and transformations that occurred as different groups settled in America, while suggesting that understanding these foundations is critical to comprehending the current state of the nation.
